The Optio E30 is a thoroughbred budget model but with a resolution remarkable at this price and unheard of only a couple of years
ago. Key features include a nice 36-108mm 3x optical zoom lens, a 2.4-inch colour screen, 3-point AF system, SDHC and SD storage, dual AA battery power and you get 11MB of built-in memory, although the latter will only be enough for two top quality shots!
15 scene modes and a natty guide menu that describes what each mode does with large, bright, animated pop up boxes offer plenty of pre-set scope and help. A green “Green Mode” button activates the most basic point and shoot functions while a Program AE mode allows for minor manual controls to be utilised.
